A super-rich tycoon? No, just call me the gentlemanly gigolo.

The next morning, after washing up, Jiang Ye casually opened Douyin and entered the "Wen Yu's Girlfriend" voice chat room.

The hall had only been open for a short time, so it wasn't very popular, and the girls' voices were all rather languid.

Too lazy to waste words, he found Yao Yao's profile picture and sent her two Carnivals directly.

[Wild Brother's Gift to Yao Yao, Wild Brother's Good Baby Carnival *2]

Two floor tile effects appeared in the public chat in succession, and the previously quiet live stream room immediately became lively.

"Wow! Hua Zi!"

Good morning, Brother Ye!

"Brother Ye is so generous! He set off fireworks as soon as he arrived!"

Yao Yao's joyful cheers followed immediately, her voice filled with disbelief:

"Wow~ Thank you, my brother! Thank you for the two cigarettes, brother! Mua~ I love you so much! Eh? Why did you come to see me so early today, brother~?"

Jiang Ye pursed his lips and, following Yao Yao's previous instructions, typed in the public chat:

Ye Ge: [You've been working really hard lately. I'll pick you up from get off work, let's take a couple of days off.]

As soon as these words were spoken, the girls on the microphone immediately became incredibly jealous:

Jiajia: "Wow! What kind of amazing older brother is this? He spoils me so much!"

Sweet girl: "Waaaah... I'm so envious I'm getting a nosebleed..."

Minnie: "Ugh, this whole day is unbearable. I'm already being bombarded with PDA first thing in the morning."

Listening to her friends' envious and jealous comments, Yao Yao raised an eyebrow smugly in front of the computer and continued with Versailles:

"Brother~! I already told you I'm not tired, look at you... Sigh, okay, okay, I really can't do anything with you, so I'll just..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhixia, unable to bear it any longer, kicked her off the microphone: "Get out of here, get out of here..."

After Jiang Ye finished sending the gifts, he exited Douyin and got up to start grooming himself.

He changed into the Versace shirt that Yao Yao had "gifted" him, put on the outfit that Ye Cheng had put together for him yesterday, and finally put the expensive Kurvaux on his wrist.

Although it was still the same face, her overall demeanor instantly improved by several levels, perfectly proving the old saying: "Clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse."

"Wow, cool!"

Jiang Ye gave a smug smile to himself in the mirror, feeling an unparalleled surge of confidence coursing through his body.

He hummed a little tune as he went downstairs and got into the car he had booked the night before, heading straight for his destination—Jindi Shangfeng Community.

This is the target Jiang Ye initially selected after spending half a day searching online yesterday.

他看上的是一套4室2厅3卫、168平的大平层，月租14000。

The luxurious decor, complete set of smart home appliances, move-in ready, and excellent park environment and facilities almost fulfilled all his fantasies of a "petit bourgeois lifestyle".

Halfway through the drive, my WeChat buzzed. It was a reply from my mother, Xu Man—Jiang Ye had sent her a message before I left, asking if she wanted to come and stay with me.

Xu Man: [You can do whatever you want, I'm not going. Just let me see you once every ten days or two weeks, that's enough, too frequent and I'm getting annoyed.]

Jiang Ye: [......]

Okay, she's definitely her biological mother.

Alright, since Mom isn't coming, he can completely let loose and do whatever he wants, saving him from having to worry about some "activities" being inconvenient to carry out.

The car quickly arrived at the Lianjia store at the entrance of the residential area.

A young man in a suit, who looked to be in his late twenties, was already waiting at the door. When he saw Jiang Ye get out of the car, he immediately jogged over to greet him.

"Hello, hello! Are you Mr. Jiang? I'm Wang Cheng, you can just call me Xiao Wang."

As the agent Wang Cheng spoke, he stretched out his hand, his gaze quickly sweeping over Jiang Ye's clothes.

Working as a real estate agent at the entrance of such an upscale residential area inevitably involves a tendency to "tailor your approach to the client," since there are simply too many people coming to watch the spectacle and ask unnecessary questions every day, which takes up too much of your time.

Jiang Ye noticed the other man's subtle movements, shook his hand calmly, and gently patted his arm with his left hand (the one with the watch), speaking in a friendly tone:

"Thank you so much, Manager Wang. It's so cold outside, and you're still waiting for me at the door."

As Wang Cheng was pondering what brand Jiang Ye's clothes were, wondering why there wasn't a single logo, his gaze unconsciously swept over Jiang Ye's wrist, and his pupils immediately contracted.

Although he didn't recognize the watch, its exquisite craftsmanship, unique retro design, and understated quality silently proclaimed, "I'm very expensive."

His smile immediately brightened, and he quickly said, "It's no trouble at all, Brother Jiang, you're too kind. It's all I should do."

Jiang Ye noticed the subtle change in the other party's attitude and nodded with satisfaction: "There's nothing to it, it's all work, everyone has their difficulties."

The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere was pleasant and harmonious.

Wang Cheng pulled several sets of keys from his pocket: "Brother Jiang, I brought the keys to the apartment you were interested in. There are two other larger apartments here, and I have the keys to those too. We can take a look at them later. We didn't discuss it in detail on the phone yesterday. How many people live here?"

"It's just me."

Jiang Ye waved his hand: "I looked at those two apartments you mentioned last night. I don't need them since I live there myself, so I won't bother changing them."

Upon hearing "a person," Wang Cheng paused for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening and nodded.

"That's right, that's right. If you're living alone, 168 square meters is definitely more than enough. Those two larger apartments aren't really cost-effective. Jiang, please wait a moment while I put the keys to those two apartments back at the shop."

With that, Wang Cheng turned and went into the Lianjia store next door.

Jiang Ye stood at the door, just as he took out his phone to check WeChat, when the real estate agent's door was pushed open again.

He thought it was Wang Cheng returning, but when he looked up, he was stunned.

Holy crap?

What are these two women doing here?

And... how did those two end up together? Do they know each other?

The person who walked out of the door was none other than Lin Wanxing, the yoga instructor I had just met at the gym entrance yesterday, and... "Yaoyao," Su Ning, whose WeChat message list was still constantly popping up with new messages.

Lin Wanxing was still dressed in a sporty and casual outfit, with a slender figure and outstanding temperament.

Su Ning wore a long, off-white down jacket and a thick scarf, revealing only her bright eyes, exuding a fresh and youthful vibe.

The two were talking in hushed tones, and they seemed to have a good relationship.

They walked out the door and were stunned when they saw Jiang Ye standing there.

Lin Wanxing: "Mr. Jiang?"

Su Ning: "Brother?"

Upon hearing how the other woman addressed Jiang Ye, the two women instinctively exchanged a glance: "You two know each other?"

After they finished speaking, the two blinked at each other, and the scene became a little awkward for a moment.
